Botanical Name: Heterocentron elegans Spanish Shawl

Variety Profile

Evergreen, dense mat forming foliage ideal for covering larger areas of bare earth as well as moulding around rocks, pavers and other hard garden features. Purple pink flowers stud foliage for a bright burst of colour during late spring through to summer.

Cultural Care

Low maintenance and easy to grow. Medium water requirements once established - quite drought tolerant requiring only occasional long soak during extended periods of heat. Apply a slow release fertiliser in spring to encourage profuse flowering. No pruning generally required.
